“I hear you,” the actor tweeted Wednesday.

Reactions on social media to the news that Matt Bomer is set to portray a trans sex worker in the upcoming Timothy McNeil film Anything have been been, well, anything but positive.

Principal photography recently wrapped in Los Angeles on the feature, which also stars John Carroll Lynch, Maura Tierney, and Micah Hauptman.

According to the film's press release, Lynch portrays Early Landry, a man who becomes suicidal over the loss of his wife. When Landry moves from Mississippi to Los Angeles, he begins an unlikely friendship with Freda, a trans sex worker played by Bomer. The two grapple to put aside their extremely different upbringings for the sake of their growing friendship.
